In the meeting, Obama reportedly boasted about his knowledge of Judaism, telling the leaders that he thinks he knows more "about Judaism" than all past presidents. He said he gained this knowledge of Judaism from reading.

"Obama ... stressed he probably knows about Judaism more than any other president, because he read about it," Haaretz reports. "[He] wondered how come no one asks Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner or Senate minority leader Mitch McConnel [sic] about their support to Israel."

Similarly, he said to the group, "I [am] not going to tell you again how I even feel about Israel, but why [are] we still talking about it?"

Based, no doubt, on his study of the 'protocols of the elders of Zion'...

Give it up, Barry.

You are fooling... nobody.

He should have been asked for a couple of titles he “read about it” in. I’d bet the only one he could cite is “The Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion”, if he could even remember that. But neither would I necessarily have expected these 20 “conservative” rabbis to be that quick on the uptake.

All he knows about Judaism probably comes from a 3 cassette box of Jeremiah Wright tapes on the subject (probably focusing on how "Jewish greed runs a world in need").

In fact, if Obama knows so much about it...maybe he can enlighten us.

Bill Ayers, Daly and Reverend Wright are Jewish?

Have to agree with Obama on this one. I think it's a ridiculous waste of time to question him about his commitment to the Jewish state.

HOW anybody can sit through that, that painful thing, without being Joe Wilson or laugh his @ss off the floor is beyond me.

I’d rather be waterboarded.

Today he said he knows more about Scientology than any other president because one of his Kenyan ancestors was dropped into that volcano with the evil Thetas from Planet Koosbane.

He’s coming apart, isn’t he?

Worse, I wouldn’t want to be in his shoes when The Lovely Michelle learns no more trips on Air Force Two with 150 of her best friends and her dog, dressed like a barroom dancer in "Sweet Charity."

According to him, he knows more about everything than all the former presidents put together. Aren’t we lucky to have such a know it all in office.
